Moosbacher Weissbier

Brewed by Private Landbrauerei Scheuerer
Style: German Hefeweizen
Moosbach, Germany

500ml bottle.
Cloudy - murky - orange, no head. Perfume in the aroma, and also a bit earthy. Slightly watery without the full complement of yeast. Fairly hoppy and bitter with the yeast. Quite dull and sludgy, the perfumed and zesty nature can’t lift it.

Bottle poured into weizen glass- poured transparent golden yellow, white head bubbled away, high carbonation. Aroma of cloves with cherry and yeast note. Hits the mouth with a thin body, carbonation is heavy on the tongue, some wheat on the palate but not much in total, finish is crisp. Not what I was expecting for the type, bit of a let down.

bottle, hazy golden with the hefe added,solid white head. citrus, bubblegum, spice, clove. Solid weissbier, went down smoothly and quickly.

I am amazed that this is not called an American Wheat style brew. Bright dark gold body, got nice and hazy with the yeast shot. Large, bright white head. The aroma is cherry cough drops with some bread crust. I could not get any of the typical clove. The flavor is as uninspiring as the smell. Some light notes of bad banana candy with some old nasty clove. The body is light and airy. Boring.

Run of the mill wiesbier. A lot of carbonation, clear, pale golden yellow, almost translucent. Looks like a filtered wiesbier. A little watery, standard citrus, fruity taste.

Wheat bears are not my favorite - this was about as expected. Carbonated banana flavors, mixed with some citrus.

Bottle from the Sharp Edge Beer Emporium, PGH, PA. Pours cloudy gold, white head. Aroma is weak: banana, spice, citrus. Flavor is banana, bubble gum, clove, citrus, slightly creamy, wheaty.

Nicely hazy after swirling the dregs. Relatively small white head. Spicy and herbal in aroma with a little bit of bubblegum. Quite spicy in flavor with clove dominating. Mellow vanilla in the background. A little light in body. Solid Hefe overall.
